Light Fixture
This is a Fabrication Design project in which students were asked to design and 3D model a light fixture using Rhino7 and Keyshot. Each student was required to output various parts of their fixture to at least three different machines including the TITAN US Cutter vinyl cutter, the Zing laser cutter, the Brother embroidery machine, and the QIDI 3D printer. My project output to the vinyl cuter, laser cutter, and 3D printer.

Reverse Engineer
This is a Fabrication Design project in which students were asked to select a handheld object of choice and digitally reconstruct its mechanical parts to scale within Rhino7. Using that model, students would then input that model into Keyshot, add textures and lighting effects, and animate the particular motion of the model's individual parts.

Spring 2025 Events Zine
This was a collaborative project assigned to me during my time as a Design Associate at UWM-Milwaukee's Manfred Olson Planetarium to encompass and advertise the upcoming Spring 2025 Events. While the individual event designs were conducted by other associates, this project entailed constant communication with the design team as well as other divisions within the Planetarium employees to ensure revisions remained consistent and current.

Hybrid Creature
This is a Fabrication Design project in which students chose two animals to merge together, developed a design within Rhino7, and output this design to a variety of different machines which would physically create it. The machines utilized to create these outputs were a TITAN US Cutter vinyl cutter, a Zing laser cutter, and a Brother embroidery machine. For this project, I chose to merge a rabbit and a dumbo octopus.
